Latest Drilling Campaigns News

Pacific Resources has confirmed a new high-grade copper zone at its Dogwood project, with assays revealing the highest copper grade recorded to date alongside a first-ever polymetallic porphyry signature from laboratory tests.

Ore Resources Ltd has secured six additional tenements at its Miriam Gold Project, creating a contiguous landholding that expands exploration potential along the Miriam Shear Zone. The acquisition positions the company for targeted drilling campaigns in 2026 and beyond.

PLC Resources is set to resume drilling at Rochefort in September, aiming to expand on promising gold signals from its maiden program. Meanwhile, a fresh structural interpretation has revealed a major regional gold corridor at Abbotts North, broadening exploration prospects.

PolarX Limited has intersected significant massive sulphide copper mineralisation in new zones approximately 60m west of the existing Caribou Dome resource in Alaska, potentially expanding the known deposit. Drilling by the Alaska Range Joint Venture with Northern Star continues, with assays expected in October 2026.

Lion Rock Minerals has revealed high-grade rare earth element mineralisation starting at surface at its Minta Project in Cameroon, with assays showing up to 21.15% TREO in saprolite and a magnet-rich rare earth basket. A large-scale drilling campaign is underway to further define this significant discovery.

Kaoko Metals has reported broad zones of visible copper mineralisation in the first two diamond drill holes at its Chalkos Copper-Silver Project in Namibia, with assays pending in the coming weeks.

Kalgoorlie Gold Mining’s recent RC drilling at Lighthorse has delivered its highest-grade intercept yet, alongside broad mineralised zones that hint at a significant concealed gold system in the Pinjin Project.

Geopacific Resources has completed a drilling campaign at its Woodlark Gold Project, delivering significant high-grade gold intercepts that reinforce and extend known mineralisation, potentially enhancing project economics.

King River Resources has delivered compelling high-grade gold assay results from its Mindoolah Project, reinforcing a robust pipeline of drill-ready targets ahead of an October RC program.

Altair Minerals has kicked off maiden Reverse Circulation drilling at its South Oko and North Peters projects, ramping up to an expected 8,000 metres per month by October 2026. Early trench results at South Oko’s W1 target reveal significant gold mineralisation, setting the stage for a critical exploration phase.

Viking Mines has reported high-grade tungsten mineralisation up to 2.7% WO3 at its Long and Terrell Projects in Nevada, expanding the potential of its tungsten portfolio beyond the flagship Linka Project.

Kantra Copper has successfully expanded the Spitfire lode at its Kanmantoo mine, intersecting significant high-grade copper-gold mineralisation beyond previous resource boundaries. This underground drilling breakthrough sets the stage for a substantial resource update later this year.
